Arcade-style soccer game. It has two different parts: Indoor and Outdoor.

The Outdoor game is the normal European soccer. You may play single matches, league or tournament (world championships). Optional features are: weather effects, replays, customizable game length. Some quite funny movements and shots are available (e.g. banana flanks).

The Indoor game has US soccer teams (?fictional?) and plays on a much smaller field. It has different rules compared to outdoor soccer. You can play single matches, league and All Star tournament. The same movements and shots can be made, sometimes with even funnier effects (e.g. banana shot bouncing of the wall and into goal).

[1] Prequel to INTERNATIONAL SOCCER CHALLENGE. Published in the USA as KEITH VAN ERON'S PRO SOCCER. Original code and design by Sensible Software; Amiga conversion by Electronic Pencil. 

[2] MICROPROSE SOCCER contains not only the international, outdoor 11-a-side version of the game, but also a popular, indoor 6-a-side variant played in North America. Inclusion of the indoor variant was requested by MicroProse for the original C64/128 release and its conversions to increase the game's appeal in the North American market.
